Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:  6

======================================================

Explanation:

Exponents of 1/2 are the same as square roots

$36^{1/2} = \sqrt{36} = 6$

If the exponent was say 1/3, then we'd be taking a cube root

$36^{1/3} = \sqrt[3]{36}$

and this is what a fourth root would look like

$36^{1/4} = \sqrt[4]{36}$

and so on
